JUAN, LIVERPOOL

Traveled with family
Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The hotel location was convenient and the included breakfast was good, so we chose it. However, our room’s AC didn’t work on a 90-degree day in NYC. After a couple of calls, the front desk sent someone who wasn’t a technician but just checked if we knew how to use the AC control. By 2 a.m., they gave up and said the repair would have to wait until the next day, which was very frustrating. The next day, a real technician confirmed the AC was broken and they told me to wait for the fix. I requested another room, but the front desk said I had to wait in the lobby with my luggage until cleaning was done afternoon, adding to my frustration. I spoke with the manager, Jose, who gave us a “better” room facing a different street and two $20 coupons for the hotel facilities. He also promised a refund for the night without AC, which I never received. Travelocity is still handling that dispute. This isn’t about the money—it’s about trust. I paid full price expecting all amenities to work. If you can’t provide proper service, maybe hospitality isn’t the right industry. I used one of the coupon for coffee the next morning after a disappointing weekend driving back home. Thanks for the Coffee!!

I did not like the breakfast set up, it was so crowded the lines were super long. The servers were in a hurry for us to sit and eat. I wish coffee and juice were served, it is a $450-$500 per night stay, I don't understand why at least coffee and juice is not served. We asked for a window seat on the second day of breakfast and they gave us a table in the middle and with a view of white glass not to mention how uncomfortable it was to sit by other people so close!

The service was good, the staff was very friendly, the room was very clean however there was a space in between the door and the floor so we heard all the doors slaming very early in the morning, it unfortunately affected a lot our sleep.

Staff are welcoming and friendly. They are helpful and knowledgeable. Rooms are clean and tidy with everything you need. The hotel is close to everything- walkable distances to Central Park (11blocks), MOMA (7blocks) and The High Line and Chelsea market (11 blocks) for example. A stones throw from the rockerfeller centre and Times Square and right on Broadway ! Stayed here several times and will always recommend.
